"If pre-kindergarten isn't there for my little cousins..."

I never went to pre-school and I did just fine in school (National Honor Society, Honor Roll, etc). Lots of people I know never attended pre-school either and they seem to have grow up without any trauma. What these idiots want is day-care at the expense of the American taxpayer. This poor 13-year-old must be a (brainwashed) sweetheart of the NEA.

I'm so fed up with teachers' unions I could scream! The OEA had a rally a while back for 'save our schools' or some other BS. My understanding is that not only did they leave a mess behind at the State Capitol, they did this on a school day! Granted, the legislature doesn't meet on the weekends, but they are whining about more money and they can't even be in the schools to teach!

Let me tell you how I really feel :)

HOMESCHOOLING BUMP!!

Yes! Those were college and high school students who marched. The numbers were too small to grab any attention, though.

Next came the Medical Workers. They arrived in buses from throughout the state. Leading the pack were both Sheldon Silver and Joe Bruno. The one question the media NEVER addresses in its coverage of these events? How much have the unions spent for this rally? They say they need money .... and this is how they spend it?! Notice that tomorrow's rally is craftily organized with entertainmenet. That means sound systems, large screen monitors for the rank and file to watch, electrical wiring has to be run, platforms need to be assembled .... what does all of this cost? This is absolutely pathetic!
